When I was in Lusaka I met the father of a blog friend of mine who runs a hospice for Aids victims – they are heavily involved in helping out the local people in any way they can and at the dinner I met a journalist who works for the BBC in Zambia, in charge of football. I offered to help in any way I could to get football kit out to them.
I have now been asked to provide football kit for several local teams in Lusaka. Which amounts to quite a lot of money. I will do some fundraising locally BUT does anybody know how to add a “Just Giving” or a “donate here” widget on to my blog so that I can enlist the help of the blogosphere? Just a pound here and there will help raise the £600 I need. I’ll write a bit more about the team another time, but for the moment I just need some help with putting the details on to my sidebar.
Thanks!

October 2, 2009I don't know how to help, but I just forwarded your post to my brother who's far more technical than me. (I still like pencils that require sharpeners.) I hope he can help. It sounds like a great cause.
